Over the past month we have been busy pulling together plans for a special launch event to open the new bike tracks at Edenbrook Country Park. These will enhance the popular tracks already in place and have facilities for both beginner and experienced riders.
Our opening event will be on Sunday, 23 June.
As well as music and food vans we’ve arranged for a special guest to join us to open the tracks – pro mountain biker Sam Reynolds! He'll be opening the tracks and spending some time riding them with everyone.
Qualified coaches will also be available to help anyone who wants to have a go and test their skills. Just to note, all those wishing to ride the tracks MUST be wearing a helmet.
For live updates on the day please follow our Facebook page.
Event timings

How to get to the event
Free parking is available in three nearby car parks at The Brambles, Hart Leisure Centre (back overflow section only) and Calthorpe Park School. If they are full, there is additional parking in Fleet town centre (charges apply).
There will be no vehicle access to the site from Pale Lane. The car parks are a 15 minute walk or a five minute cycle from the bike tracks on Edenbrook Country Park.
We encourage as many people as possible to walk or cycle to this event!
Safety information
In the lead-up to the event, please stay off the tracks until all signage and fencing is removed. Using the tracks before they are ready could risk damaging them.
No dogs are allowed in the area during the event times.
